1. Campaigning to improve local transport

Transport is one of the issues that always comes up when ever I talk to local residents. This is obviously a varied topic but a hugely important one - especially considering all of the traffic that we will 'inherit' when the new housing is built in South Gloucestershire.

I have worked hard to secure improvements in our community - including removing pinch points, installing parking bays, crossing points and putting in yellow lines. The thing I am most proud of though is getting the agreement and funding for the re-opening of a Henbury Train Station in 2021. Never the less there is still more work to do.

My goals for the future are:

Deliver the Train Station by 2021 and continue to push for the full Henbury Loop.

Improve the junction at the end of Crow Lane where it meats Henbury Road.

Get two crossing points installed on Charlton Road near the shops and Kingsweston Road near the Blaise play area.

Continue to oppose any 'rat-runs' from the South Gloucestershire housing development.
